"Resolve to preform what you ought; perform without fail what you resolve" - Ben Franklin
I have chosen Resolution to be my virtue to improve upon. I feel that this among several other virtues I need to work on to better myself. As Ben Franklin states in two short statements above interprets motives of improving personal aspects in one's life. And if i create resolutions to better my personality, it shall be easier to perfect myself in the other areas that Ben Franklin did. He created these virtues to perfect his personality and the ways he reacts or does not react to situations he encounters.
In order to improve my virtue of resolution I am going to set a resolution each morning to work on.Each resolution will be based on the previous day’s experiences and how I handled my problems or annoyances. If I handle something wrong one day the next day I am going work on a better way to handle it. If need to take a cool down brake after I get upset or if I need to set down once and a while to a break every once and a while. So, I can interpret other virtues into the virtue I am working on depending the circumstance that arise.

update 1:
I have set several resolutions within the past five days. On was to work on tranquility. On Saturday I had my keys taken away for not getting home by curfew on Friday night, so since I did not have a car to use to get places I decided to stay home and relax, this calmed me down. Then on sunday I choose to work on the same resolution. Since i was sick most of the day sunday it was easy to take a nap and find serenity within my room. On Monday my resolution was to "Follow my parents curfew" and "just to have fun all day, and be proud of my mistakes and accomplishments"... this was the resolution I need to work on the most- Accepting myself for me! Last day to update on was Tuesday. Tuesday's resolution was to just enjoy my friends and catch up with them from the weekend. Sometimes I need to set these resolutions so I remember to ask about things going on, because I am always busy and thinking about upcoming events. So far, my virtue of Resolution fits for me because it directly helps me to see my flaws that I need to work on. <3.

I have set one major resolution this weekend. That was to have fun and not break too many of my parents strict rules and just enjoy my beautiful weekend. I did exactly that! I tanned on Saturday and realxed and enjoyed the gorgeous weather. Then Today I got to take my nephew on a car ride and took him on a walk... All this while staying out of trouble with my strict parents. <3.
Kylene,
I'm glad you stayed out of trouble and practiced resolution. Keep up the good work.

I was doing okay with making resolutions and making sure I was following through with each one. Then Monday everything went down hill... I went to eighth period class and had to sit through a class without Sarah.. I try to stay strong so everyone else can lean on me in the hard times... I am the one that everyone goes to, when they want to talk. But, monday the eerie silence during 8th period set the scene for the tear to flow.. So Monday I made the resolution to be more like Sarah. To live my life to the fullest, and leave a stamp in everyone's hearts. I want to have a smile on my face everyday they way she did. I want to be friends with everyone and be known as the one that hates noone and everyone loves. So I am going to keep this resolution... because I feel that any other resolution cannot live up to this one. <3'.
Kylene,
I know you can keep this resolution. You are such a good person with a great heart!-Mrs. V
